Iris Medina, LSW, is a bilingual therapist offering virtual therapy throughout Illinois. As a first-generation Mexican-American and eldest daughter, Iris understands what it’s like to carry the emotional load, managing family expectations while quietly pushing through anxiety, pressure, and self-doubt.

Her style is holistic, warm, and empowering. Iris blends mindfulness, CBT, and culturally responsive therapy to help Latinx clients navigate anxiety, depression, family conflict, and identity challenges. She creates a safe, nonjudgmental space where clients can slow down, reflect, and feel deeply understood, without needing to explain their cultura.

Iris works with young professionals, first-gen students, and adults juggling multiple roles. Her sessions focus not just on coping but on helping clients reconnect with their values, build boundaries, and feel more at peace in their own skin.

She believes healing doesn’t mean doing more, it often means letting go of what was never yours to carry.
